It just seems awfully poorly laid out and with a lot of wasted space. Did I mention the unit information tab doesn’t even tell you attack damage? The currently selected units are squeezed onto a little bar above the name and portrait. The worst thing is that most of the elements are completely superfluous - the currently selected unit’s portrait (not animated, and clicking on it doesn’t even zap the camera over to the unit) and name take up a big plap in the middle, forcing the unit information to be hidden behind the command card on a seperate tab (at least for your own units). While AoE2 had a very refined, civilised interface with a small and tidy font, AoE3 vomits a big ugly splatter all over your screen, obscuring most of the game world. The main problem is that it’s big, even with “minimal interface” mode activated. It’s just… not as good as its predecessor.

I never heard anything particularly good about this game, especially in comparison to its glorious predecessor but all in all, it’s not a bad game after all.
